Human's strength is deep comprehension.

The ability to compare and infer various things in any situation and judge quickly.

In other words.

Observation. Insight.

They are the species that understands those best.

Surely should have been.

“Ugh… what is this really.”

Seems I lost that strength.

I don't understand the current situation at all.

Clearly I was defeated.

Due to the unexpected activation of the third curse, I couldn't run away from the broker, and he suppressed me just like the Champion Goblin.

No intention to complain about that.

Because in this world unreasonable from birth, finding a solution is more advantageous than complaining.

Accepting, or peeking for an opening.

Thought I would see the end somehow.

“Seriously whaaaat…….”

The broker let me go.

Not just letting me go, but gave me much more money than promised and disappeared.

Since there was nothing I could do immediately, I took it and returned home for now….

Uncomfortable.

Why did he let me go?

If it were me, I would have detained immediately.

Absolutely don't know the broker's behavioral intention for catching me then letting me go.

Thinking about that guy for several hours already.

Dying of tiredness, why does it bother me so much.

“Whew…….”

Washed and lay on the bed refreshed, but as expected, thoughts of that guy don't disappear.

Just one or two things make me anxious.

That guy even saw my face.

Besides, he was a Nightmare Climber.

If it's insight and sense of that guy's level, high possibility he will see through my true self sooner or later.

In the worst case, might find out that the NPC and I are the same person.

Seems I got tangled up badly.

Well, is this also something I brought on myself.

Slap!~

Slapped my cheek with a bundle of money.

Should be a good money taste, but didn't heat up like last time.

Anxious for no reason.

Why he gave this money.

Did he attach a location tracker?

Stored only money in inventory and threw away the money bag for now, but very anxious.

If there is a tracker cleverly between money bundles?

If tracking is possible even if put in inventory?

Hmm. Should I rather throw it all away.

To do that….

Slap, slap~

This money taste slapping the cheek.

Cannot shake off this temptation. I am already a slave to capitalism.

How I earned this money, how can I throw it away.

[Did you return well?]

Flinch!

Just in time the broker's text came.

W-with what intention is he sounding me out.

Still haven't thought of a countermeasure. Don't know this guy's level anymore.

Couldn't have let me go without reason.

Clearly there is something I don't know.

Should I just block him?

He's the one who let me go.

Whatever I do is freedom.

If he uses a trick because he hates that, I can decide my attitude seeing that.

Doesn't look like he intends to kill me.

Hmm. Ignore for now.

Turned off the phone and closed eyes.

Anyway about to die of tiredness.

Head will clear up if I sleep well and wake up.

Phew~

Sighed as soon as I woke up.

Because one more text from the broker had come.

[What is your name?]

Question openly asking for personal information.

Naturally a question I have no intention of answering.

Let's keep ignoring.

Slurp!~

Breakfast is simple ramen.

After filling the empty stomach, opened the window and took a deep breath to recover energy to some extent.

“Yaaawwwwn!!~”

Stretching grandly clears the breath a bit.

Although the process is very uncomfortable, anyway I earned big money.

Can't not use what I have.

No more worries about living expenses.

Now, then first.

Click.

Access Gallery.

Time to see the postponed Nightmare Floor 7 news.

This is a problem directly connected to my life. Need to examine it then and there if possible.

Above all, when the past is uncomfortable, focusing on the present is the best prescription medicine.

Just in time, the gallery is full of news about me.

Clicked a post immediately.

[What is the identity of Ak-rini's magic?][Poster: OO]

Seriously what is up with popping goblins pang pang? shivering

Thought she was helplessly caught, but blows away goblins and releases restraints on her own and slaughters them?

Was she hiding her power on Floor 5 lol

OO: Seeing this I cancel Depravity Route.

OO: Fr if you touch her wrong your body might pop pang pang. Abdullah: That's not it. Still vulnerable in close combat so hit the back of the head and it's over. Couldn't do anything when ambushed by Goblin Champion. PureLove: Do you want to do that? Ak-rini is something to protect with love.

Ak-rini.

My NPC nickname solidified this time.

A word created by combining Nightmare (Ak-mong) + Child (Eorini), started being used a few days ago, and now became the official word referring to me.

Feeling like I became a Nightmare Mascot.

Well, not wrong words.

[You guys don't save Ak-rini immediately.][Poster: SteamedBunPecker]

Really going crazy lol

My party is a bit strong so we sliced goblins as soon as we discovered Ak-rini you see?

But at some point Ak-rini disappeared and wasn't there.

While catching goblins diligently she just fled.

Is this right?? lol

OO: Should have gone after reading the guide.

SteamedBunPecker: I intended to write the guide sob OO: Ak-rini can release restraints alone. So she runs away alone while fighting. PhysicsWizard: Ah lol Ak-rini is wary so have to help when it's certain lol SteamedBunPecker: Augh. Really should have saved her a bit late. Would I have known she would fight like that later. SteamedBunPecker: Ha damn. Just somewhat resented. Just change to Depravity?

Oho.

Listening to it, if they intrude immediately when I was tied up at first, I run away while they slice goblins.

Disappearing while the two fight.

Truly appearance like me. Seems I rotted the insides of a few Hunters because of that.

Might be a little detestable?

“Seems many already climbed Floor 7.”

Looking around the gallery, posts are coming up on the premise that most know about Nightmare Floor 7.

Videos of Floor 7 must have spread a lot already.

First I should examine videos too.

Tap tap tap.

Yul-Tube.

Searched with keyword Ak-rini and videos popped up in droves.

Because all interest in Nightmare focused on me after the System Quest Notice.

Clicked one with high views among them.

Can't miss a video where I appear.

Crunch!~

Didn't forget to open popcorn.

After body became young, keep craving snacks. So keeping them stocked by the box.

Tastes better if eaten fully at times like this.

Click.

Skip ad.

Chewing a mouthful of snacks, immersed in the video.

The video started with Korean Hunters secretly infiltrating the cave, then discovering me caught by the Champion Goblin.

[Too many enemies.]

[ Shouldn't we save that child?]

[Bad goblins. What are you doing to a girl!!….]

[But with our strength….]

Hunters in the video are a Korean 4-man party.

They discovered me caught, but watched the situation without saving immediately. Probably a Hard Low-Rank party, seemed a bit hesitant to deal with 40 goblins at once.

But this body is not in a position to receive worry.

The me of that time found a solution immediately.

As you can see.

Whoooosh!!~

Champion Goblin flies away, and I escape restraints alone and slaughter goblins.

Popping goblins with Air Explosion, even making a pit and burying them alive.

My Mad Movie played.

[W-what is that!…..]

The 4-man party couldn't hide their astonishment.

Because they wouldn't have dreamed that I, who couldn't budge being bound, would release shackles myself and sweep away the goblin horde.

But I wasn't perfect.

Couldn't notice the existence of the last remaining Goblin Champion and showed an opening.

Eventually.

Wham!!

[Ughhh!!?….]

Ambushed as is and fell.

Two hands grabbed and raised up, choked and couldn't ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠breathe properly. Naturally impossible to resist with weakest body. Even if struggling desperately, only stimulating the goblin.

Appearance of thrusting face and emitting stench.

Smell was really terrible at that time.

[Now!!]

Slash!!~Slice!!-

At this time the 4-man party moved.

Coolly rescued me driven into a crisis.

And reached out a hand reassuring me.

[Excuse me are you okay?]

[Don't worry. No more goblins now.]

This is truly thankful but.

Striking the last hit once and posing is truly… if saving, save quickly from the start.

Like that broker.

Huh?….

Shake shake.

Let's not think of that guy.

Getting uncomfortable the more I think for no reason.

“I am quite stubborn too.”

In the video, I didn't take the extended hand this time either, stood up alone, and was wary of them. Eventually causing fog this time too and Escape Ending.

[What. Like this it's the same as last time.]

[Why be wary to that extent?]

[Should we chase?]

[Said she attacks as warning if chased. Then affinity will only be cut for no reason? Have to aim for next time.]

[Sigh~ Tricky NPC.]

Hunters poured out complaints.

Saved twice, but wary appearance wouldn't have been welcome from their perspective. Watching as video, certainly hits home for me too.

Is that why.

Slightly agonizing.

Little… is it okay to accept greetings.

Still guys who saved me, if I treat them too coldly and they change to Depravity Route, it's troubling.

Really difficult, this.

Scroll~

Scrolled down video to check comments.

Girl is freaking strong lol Is it right for us to save her? If we leave that alone to the end what happens perhaps?

What else, Main Quest Failure pops up.Why does that thing keep running away? Really don't understand.Seems there ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠is a story?That is what's tasty. Unraveling little by little and approaching us.Fr sweet.

“Groan…….”

Seeing videos and comments like this makes me agonize.

Little.

Shall I try accepting very softly.

Continuing to run away and making them feel bad won't be good for me either.

But what if it goes wrong?

If someone approaches and hits the back of the head?

Wait.

Anyway that's not me but an NPC, so nothing changes if I agonize.

Let's stop useless agony.

Search gallery again.

[Ak-rini clothes super cute admit?][So who dressed Ak-rini??][Clothes changed, seems right ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠someone dressed her?][Ninja suit lol Concept crazy.][Don't know who but thank you. (Ak-rini jpg)]

Gallery had many miscellaneous talks besides conquest.

Especially many evaluations about my appearance and clothes. Because the speculation that someone changed my ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠clothes is still lingering in the gallery.

Meaning my defensive war was quite active.

Hmph.

Then time to use this now.

Photo of me taken personally.

Tap.

Took out phone and popped up the photo.

Proof shot taken by myself with a camera wearing various outfits after clearing Destruction Floor 2.

What reaction will come if I upload this.

Probably public opinion believing dressing is possible as tabloid will disappear at once.

Affinity public opinion will become stronger too.

Good. Execute immediately.

Tap tap tap.

Logged into a named account specially this time.

Although I couldn't get the broker's help, with this I will silence the Depravity public opinion.

[I dressed Ak-rini in new clothes.]

Click.

Now, let's go.
